The Canada Model and Post-Brexit EU Trade Relations: Insights from the "Other" Transatlantic Partner

This book provides an overview of the relationship between Canada and the European Union (EU), offering a comprehensive treatment of the ’Canada model, ’ frequently mentioned in the discussions surrounding Brexit.

Addressing the issues in three ways: examining the economic relations between Canada and the EU, comparing the essence of Canada’s relationship to the EU with that of the United Kingdom (UK) post-Brexit, and considering the relations with their respective large neighbours, this book offers a deeper understanding of what the ’Canada model’ really means. Contributions from different disciplinary perspectives provide expert, accessible coverage by analysing both the relationships between Canada and the EU, and between the UK and its partners.

This book will be of key interest to scholars, students, and practitioners of EU politics, British politics, Canadian politics, international trade, comparative politics, and international relations.
